    Pretty Good
    The Rookie is one of the better cop shows on tv right now. Nathan Fillon leads a really good cast who all do a good job making this a show worth watching. Anyone who's seen Fillon in a show knows he never disappoints. This show does good job balancing drama, action, suspense and humor. It also shows how tough it is to be a police officer both at work and at home. Some of the negative reviews are from people that don't like that they take real world problems of today and apply them to the show. Everyone knows there are a thousand police shows to choose from but if you're looking for an exciting and original show then give The Rookie a try.
